1970 Map of Lake Weir

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

The Ocklawaha River and the northern reaches of Lake Weir define this landscape on the edge of the Ocala National Forest. Surveyed in 1970 with updates reflecting 1990 conditions, the map shows the complex hydrology of north-central Florida, where the dense Marshall Swamp and Heather Island separate the river from the citrus groves and residential expansion near Candler. The riverine economy is evident at Moss Bluff, where the Moss Bluff Lock and Dam and a Gaging Sta regulate the waterway. Local history is anchored by landmarks like St Pauls Ch and several family-named water bodies including Lake Fay, Lake Pendarvis, and Halford Lake. Traces of older land use appear in the Old Boat Trail and various sandpits and quarries, while the emergence of Hampton Beach and leisure sites around the lake indicate the area's transition toward recreation and retirement communities.
